For the price the camera is a good one. The only thing I dislike is the night vision isn't good. Other than that I think this product is well worth the money.

Fairly easy to set up and use. The directions are very basic and easy, which is good and bad......there are parts of the setup that need more of an explanation, like how to set the monitoring for sound. Quality is fair, not great. I have one out of four that appears to have a loose power connection. Lastly, I paid $89 plus tax for 4. It was $69 for the same thing on Amazon....shop around for a better price.

super easy to set up and use. clear images from the cameras. the night vision option is a plus. the only downfall is if you use them to watch outside and there is no light in the area then you really can't see anything but other than that we love them

Plan to spend between 11 and 15 dollars a month on a yi online account … i love the product I'm currently using 7 in and outside my home .. Great parenting asset ..

It was very easy to set up after you down load app. / picture is very clear / putting it anywhere in the house was easy. / over all great product and great price.

The 4 pack is a great value. Night vision works great. Make sure to fine tune your settings otherwise youll get a lot of alerts.

Love theses cameras so easy to set up. picture is very clear. I very satisfied.

it has very good quality and it came early

Must have a fast internet service.

Perfect home-security system

I like everything about ot

This camera requires an app that limits its functionality without paying extra. Their subscription only records 7 days of motion detection. Without a server, the camera will only record 30 seconds and then shut down for 10 minutes. It won't even record locally on the SD card. Free features: - 1080p live feed over the internet - Infrared night vision - Alerts for motion and sound detection - Connect with a smartphone Cons: - No backup battery - Requires stable internet and server - Bloated software limited without YI server subscription - The "Kami Cloud" service is also very limited and not worth the reoccurring cost (in my opinion) Subscription workaround: Making your own server is easier than you'd think. With the use of free screen capture software, you can record any stream ... Read moreThis camera requires an app that limits its functionality without paying extra.

Any old computer with work (just have to keep it on) and a 256GB hard drive will store over a month of 24/7 hd video. Suggestions: - No internet or unstable connections? Get a webcam instead. - Willing to pay for server subscription? There's a trial if you buy the camera directly from their website, but shop around and do research on different brands. YI hardware is a great deal but the reoccurring fees are expensive compared to the competition. Account for cost, storage space, reliability, and reputation. If your estimated cost exceeds $15/month, drop the tech companies altogether and start shopping for professional security and monitoring systems. Should I buy this product? - YES but only if you set up an old computer with it. The night vision feature and quality of the image makes it worth the cost. - NO if don't want to set up a computer because then it is basically useless. Conclusion: This is a 1/5 star product on it's own and a 5/5 star product when pared with screen capture softwareRead Less

Good quality and features however make sure to read the terms carefully as it can be evil. They like collecting and selling information via your app and filtering your router/modem so make sure to isolate the cams internet access. If you buy their subscription they can commercialize your privacy based on their EULA. I missed the 39 for 4 deal but 65 is still decent for the family pack. These look like refurbished units with new accessories compared to the standalone ones but still the value is pretty good. No Yi sticker. FPS is higher than most at this price point which outputs 15-24fps compared to cheaper chips at 8-18fps. I have 1GBps internet to measure. They have stealthy IR and performs well, TF slot {64gbmax?), Reduced 6 second preview ( other brands give me 45s}, motion ...

Cloud subscription is locked to their servers only but optional to operate. They have a optional police service call also. However this is not a private cloud service according to their terms(2017).

We have four of these, so far. They monitor the front and back and sides of our house. It pings my cell phone (tablet & computer can monitor it as well) anytime there is action or movement that it catches. Basically, it's pretty much just picking up kids running down the street, people walking and cars going by, but if we were to go on vacation it's peace of mind knowing that the house is safe. Planning on a fifth for the interior of the house so it can monitor the inside in the area where our pets (bunnies) will stay when we head out for an overnight. In addition to picking up people going by or cars, we have also picked up a coyote, a baby squirrel climbing on the house railing, caterpillars going up the glass windows. It's perfect for our usage. You can shut them off if you're in the ... Read moreWe have four of these, so far. They monitor the front and back and sides of our house.

You can shut them off if you're in the room with it, and don't want to "tape" your conversation. Tho this feature does seem to be a little bit lacking. So the sound comes off or tinny of a sound. Hard to tell what folks are saying, which I find to be a positive, not negative feature. Sometimes when there's no noise going on, there's a creaky kinda sound that it plays. Not sure what it's picking up, but I think they all do it. This doesn't bother me, I'm using it to monitor would be robbers. Oh and there's a feature in the settings so you can turn the blue light off--on the front of it there's a blue (see attached pics) light to tell folks it's running. This light can be annoying if you point it at a window to monitor what's going on outside. A five-second easy fix! Read Less

3 out of 4 cameras work fine 1 does not work no matter where I put it !

this is a great inexpensive security system. pairing up with my phone was a cinch. they work good in low light. I had it set to high sensitivity and high alert status and it was so sensitive it was picking up dusk floating by in low light, easily changed the setting and all is well. nice to see everything is ok while i'm away. also,,, you can get creative if you want to hide them. the camera (black round part) can pop out of the white stand. two things I don't like is once in a while it goes down, not often though. the other thing is the privacy issue loading images to the cloud. if you use just the scan disk a thief can simply walk out the door with it. I've got mine set and even have 'bait' left out so a thief must walk by at least 3 cams to grab a broken item. highly recommend this item.

It is easy to setup and functions as it should be. The alert is suppose to alert when motion is detected. But it is too many alerts for 3 camera. Everyday I have hundreds of alerts and need to delete lots of video. Wish the camera can alerts only humans. It alerts everything from any movements from trees, leaves, animals.

I like the cameras, it took some time pairing them. I only needed three, so one that was especially hard to pair is not being used. I have problems with an employee at my apartment complex coming into my apartment when I'm not home. I needed evidence that her visits were not official, so the cameras must be somewhat discreet. Since the cameras themselves are black, I can't put them in a light setting. In order to get them to blend into a darker colored setting (bookcase) I had to paint the stand black. I had some issues with the cameras clicking, after they were on awhile. Again, I'm going for somewhat discreet.Repositioning them - and thereby making them more visible- helped. So I'v had them about a week, can only give a 3 star at this timeI like the cameras, it took some time pairing them. I only needed three, so one that was especially hard to pair is not being used.

Once you've figured out how to set everything, a simple power cut for a split second will have you re-do everything again which completely defeats the purpose of being away but being able to keep an eye out. It should re-set itself when it stays connected to power (like everything else does). Quality of picture is good. No remote panning or tilting. ADDED COMMENTS: Why it initially did not re-set after a power outage I do not know but after the last few outages (we get them a lot here) it DID re-set so with that, I have upgraded to 4 stars and a recommendation for purchase.

Nice cameras for the money. Good value with features compatible with today’s lifestyle such as, Home and away mode, cloud storage options and flexible settings. Nice cameras for the money. Good value with features compatible with today’s lifestyle such as, Home and away mode, cloud storage options and flexible settings.

If you want to use these for anything outdoor such as license plates or faces past 10 ft, try another type. These are nice and clear up to that distance, past that you can make out a vehicle make and color, but nothing past that. Would buy again though.

Be aware that NOTHING is stored on your camera when motion first occurs even with a card installed - all video goes to the cloud and then downloads to your phone when you want to see them.
